Swisher suggested. 'And that's not because she's some avenging fury. It's because there is a lot of questions around different companies of his.'She further claimed that the agencies affected by the cuts Musk made when he was running the Department of Government Efficiency would start investigating his many companies.

The development comes as it was reported Musk ordered a reduction in Starlink satellite services for Ukraine even as the tech billionaire claimed any limits on the communications system would ultimately have come from the president. Musk capped the speed at which Ukrainian equipment could connect to the system, making some of Kyiv's drones useless, the Wall Street Journal reported. Kyiv has accused Washington of deliberately slowing speeds at which Starshield – a Starlink satellite network for national security services – can be used effectively, a charge denied last week by US President Donald Trump.Musk had previously said that 'any limits on speed or usage' of Starshield systems were 'decided by the US military and ultimately POTUS', referring to Mr Trump.Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Wednesday that Washington had no prior knowledge of the slowdown.'The President has nothing to do with the decisions that are made by Starlink and Starshield and by Mr Musk,' Mr Rubio said during his trip to India.'That's a private company; the President doesn't run that company and can't direct that company to do anything... I'm telling you, there was no foreknowledge.'On Tuesday, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth said that the Pentagon had not directed any changes to Starshield, saying: 'We haven't pulled anything back.'
